Housebreaking!!! How old were your Yorkies before they were totally housebroken? I would like to know what the average ages are for most Yorkies before they become pottytrained! |
Mine will be six in July and she knows where she is suppose to go but she doesn't do it. She usually pees outside 1-3 times a day and goes inside the rest:rolleyes: . |
skoshi is almost 6 months and he will go to the door and wait. He wont pee inside unless we dont see him at the door and he waits there forever. He wont make a noise he will just go to the corner of the door and sit there. so sometimes we miss him. |
Millie was 6.5 -7 months old. I got her when she was 12 wks old. So it took about 3-4 months. She is 100% housebroken. I never trained her on papers. She was strictly trained to go outside. and I spent every moment of every second on the training issue. It was my #1 priority. Everything else was secondary to that until she got the hang of it. I also did not give her free run of the house. She was sequestered to an x-pen, crate or one room and it was the room I was in! |
see i dont use crates or anything. Skoshi has free fun except when we are at work then he is kept in the master bedroom. He never uses the bathroom while we are gone. I understand the whole crate thing but i dont like it myself. just saying i wouldnt do it. BUT i just kept all my time in going outside. and if he used it in the house we would make him smell it then make him follow us to the door and take him outside. so thats how he knows you just have to be persistent. |
I'm still struggleling with this, they still go inside :( I let them have a pp pad inside we also go outside, but they still have accidents...they refuse to poop on the pp pad Do you think it has anything to do with their weight Marley is 3.9 and Leeloo around 3.5 pounds......how many hours can they really hold it when they are this small? |
skoshi is 4 pds i mean i used pp pads at the very beginning and he maybe peed on them 2 times and thats all. and i mean like seriously ever like 20 mins you need to take him outside to see. be persistent and tell him outside. when i say skoshi you need to go outside he knows. i want to get a doggy doorbell or soemthing he can ring to let me know when he is at the door tho. but dont expect them to use the pp pads dont rely on that. rely on you taking them as ofter as you think to go outside. |

Both of my boys were 6-9 months old when they finally got it. There were a lot of hits and misses before then, and a lot of frustration. Someone told me once that a pup cannot fully control his bladder until 6 mos of age, and I have to say that I saw a big difference after 6 mos. For those of you still struggling with this, it does get better! |
Jinny will be 2 in June and she still has accidents. Jazzy is doing well. He is 7 months old. He is starting to want to mark a little though. I need to get him a belly band bad. |

Cozy has been 100% housebroken since 6 months of age. She is outside more than inside most days though. Everytime she goes to the door someone lets her out even if she only can in two minutes prior. I have heard that small dogs do not have full bladder and bowel control until 2 years of age. Hope this helps. |
Joey has been fully housebroken since he was 4.5 months. He's so good. |
lexi is 2 years old. she pottys outside when i walk her.. she pottys on my deck on a wee pad, she pottys in her room on the wee pad and she pottys right on the rug in the living room whenever she feels like it... soooooooooooo, i guess she will never be 100 % potty trained unless i pull that rug up and we shall see.. i doubt it though |
